http://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/MartinManey has a snapshot of the FAQ page
(with the top matter removed - that will need some rework too) in an
alternate formatting. I'm not really keen about using the h4 markup,
but when I started this I thought I'd be keeping the existing h3 stuff,
and wanted to have the questions subordinate to them...
I think I mucked up some formatting in a few complicated sections
moving it back and forth to a real editor, but despite those oopses on
my part I believe this format makes it easier to have non-simple
strusture in the answers. If no one thinks this is just a bad idea,
I'll take a crack at redoing the real FAQ page in a day or two, if
someone else doesn't think it's so much better they beat me to it. :-)
You can get carried away with [[TableOfContents]], but it works very
well for FAQs and some other things.

A delicate balance is necessary between sticking with the things
you know and can rely upon, and exploring things which have the
potential to be better. Assuming that either of these strategies
is the one true way is silly. -- Graydon Hoare
